Reflection and Refraction
![Page 2: Chapter 29 Reflection and Refraction. When waves interact with matter, they can be reflected, transmitted, or a combination of both. Waves that are transmitted.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56649ed95503460f94be8655/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
• When waves interact with matter, they can be reflected, transmitted, or a combination of both.
• Waves that are transmitted can be refracted.

Reflection
• When a wave reaches a boundary between two media, usually some or all of the wave bounces back into the first medium.
• The part of the wave that comes back is the reflection.

Defining Normal?
• Normal: Perpendicular to the plane of a surface.
• The normal to the floor points straight up.
• The normal to the ceiling points straight down.

The Law of Reflection
Angle of Incidence = Angle of Reflection

Refraction • When a wave hits a boundary it changes its speed upon crossing the boundary between two media.
(Media is plural for medium)
• If that wave hits the boundary at any angle other than normal to the surface, it bends.
• This bending is called Refraction.

A Property of Matter
• Index of Refraction: A measure of how much slower light moves through a material.
• The higher the number, the slower light moves.
€
μ =Speed of light in a vacuum
Speed of light in material

Toward Normalor Away From Normal
• When light moves from a lower Index of Refraction to a higher index of refraction, the wave bends towards the normal.
• When light moves from a higher Index of Refraction to a lower index of refraction, the wave bends away from the normal.

Effects of Refraction in Daily life
• Think for a moment• Write down what is going on in each picture.

Diffraction
• Bending of waves when they encounter an obstacle.
